Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Hillsborough, New Hampshire had been experiencing sinking floors in their home. In an attempt to support the structure, the homeowners put concrete blocks under the support beam. This unconventional technique did not work, so they turned to Erickson Foundation Solutions for a professional and permanent solution.

After a thorough inspection, Design Specialist Jason Vachon recommended installing SmartJacks and encapsulating the crawl space with CleanSpace. This proposal would uplift and stabilize the home, while also providing a dry crawl space. Our installation crew started by putting the SmartJacks in place. This consisted of placing the steel plates on crushed stone to create a sturdy base, attaching the steel beams to those plates, and then attaching those beams to the supplemental support beam that was installed and leveled. With the SmartJacks in place, the team could then move forward with encapsulating the crawl space with CleanSpace. This vapor barrier was applied to the entire crawl space. Finally, our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was put in place.

This solution by our team delivers stability to the entire home and a dry and insulated crawl space. The benefits of these features include leveled floors, protection from insects and critters, a comfortable living space, and better air quality. The homeowner really enjoyed the result.

A homeowner in Bradford, New Hampshire, had purchased their 1850s home 4 years ago. The homeowner was concerned with mice and drafts of cold air traveling through the crawlspace into their home. The homeowners called EFS to inspect their basement for possible solutions. Our Design Specialist Jason recommended installing PolyLevel Wall Restoration to seal the fieldstone foundation in the crawlspace to prevent mice and cold drafts from entering their home. 

Our installations team installed PolyLevel Wall Restoration into the crawlspace to seal up all of the gaps and cracks in the fieldstone foundation. 

Before our team stepped in, the homeowner in Greenville, NH, was facing a pressing issue – their crawl space was constantly wet, posing a threat not only to the utilities but also to the structural integrity of their home. As you can see in the before photo, the damp conditions were far from ideal. Fast forward to our intervention, we installed CleanSpace and SaniDry Sedona, transforming the crawl space into a dry and healthy environment. Notice in the after photo how clean and secure the area is now – that's the Erickson Foundation Solutions difference, providing a reliable and long-lasting solution while ensuring a remarkable customer experience.

A homeowner of a modern-day log cabin has lived in the home for the past 10 years. About 4 years ago a neighbor built a home on the property next to theirs. The new home changed the way water drains away from the home. Shortly after the home was built they noticed that water was collecting inside their crawlspace. They call EFS for a free inspection. Our Design Specialist inspected the basement and then recommended installing SmartPipe, SuperSump, and exterior drainage to prevent the water from collecting inside the crawlspace and then pumping the water away from the foundation of the home.
